In this paper we present conditions for the preservation of strong and polynomial stability of a strongly continuous semigroup under unbounded finite rank perturbations of its infinitesimal generator. In addition, we also improve recent perturbation results for bounded finite rank perturbations. The results are illustrated with two examples. In the first one we consider the preservation of stab...

The eigenproblems of the rank-one updates of the matrices have lots of applications in scientific computation and engineering such as the symmetric tridiagonal eigenproblems by the divide-andconquer method and Web search engine. Many researchers have well studied the algorithms for computing eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices updated by a rank-one matrix [1–6]. Recently, Ding and Zhou studied a ...

New perturbation results for the behavior of eigenvalues and Jordan forms of real and complex matrices under generic rank one perturbations are discussed. Several results that are available in the complex case are proved as well for the real case and the assumptions on the genericity are weakened. Rank one perturbations that lead to maximal algebraic multiplicities of the “new” eigenvalues are ...

We consider the problem of finding the spectrum of an operator taking the form of a low-rank (rank one or two) non-normal perturbation of a well-understood operator, motivated by a number of problems of applied interest which take this form. We use the fact that the system is a low-rank perturbation of a solved problem, together with a simple idea of classical differential geometry (the envelop...

We present eigenvalue bounds for perturbations of Hermitian matrices, and express the change in eigenvalues in terms of a projection of the perturbation onto a particular eigenspace, rather than in terms of the full perturbation. The perturbations we consider are Hermitian of rank one, and Hermitian or non-Hermitian with norm smaller than the spectral gap of a specific eigenvalue. Applications ...

A family of selfadjoint operators of the Friedrichs model is considered. These symmetric type operators have one singular point, zero of order m. For every m > 3/2, we construct a rank 1 perturbation from the class Lip1 such that the corresponding operator has a sequence of eigenvalues converging to zero. Thus, near the singular point, there is no singular spectrum finiteness condition in terms...

In this article, we propose a method for solving the trust-region subproblem when a limited-memory symmetric rank-one matrix is used in place of the true Hessian matrix. The method takes advantage of two shape-changing norms to decompose the trust-region subproblem into two separate problems, one of which has a closed-form solution and the other one is easy to solve. Sufficient conditions for g...

Let A be a matrix and λ0 be one of its eigenvalues having g elementary Jordan blocks in the Jordan canonical form of A. We show that for most matrices B satisfying rank (B) ≤ g, the Jordan blocks of A+B with eigenvalue λ0 are just the g− rank (B) smallest Jordan blocks of A with eigenvalue λ0. The set of matrices for which this behavior does not happen is explicitly characterized through a scal...
